Many are also losing their tents and all their extremely needed possessions they’ve been carrying to survive, because of the rain and the sea tides. And it’s unbelievably expensive to replace any of these things let alone eat anything or get warm clothes where available.

This is astounding. In June, the FWC ruled that I was sacked. Yet ABC chair Kim Williams stood before a room full of journalists & repeatedly denied I was sacked without hesitation.
This isn’t just gaslighting—it’s a brazen disregard for both the ruling & the truth by our public broadcaster 1/2

is very telling that Musk clings to the "Asperger syndrome" label.
He wants you to know his autism is useful to the N*zi regime, which was the only reason the distinction was made originally.

Surprise - almost as if the whole orchard is rotten …
When people who berated other people for not turning out to vote due to literal genocide
And not the party DOING the (unpopular) genociding
And Gaza parking lot was the response of those berating ‘progressives’
So weird things went wrong?

I love that so many people have seen this
I love that the old white men don’t understand why they hate her so much
I love their small, petty discomfort compared with her heart, kinship, culture, love of country

The Facebook algo keeps removing this typically beautiful and historically deep piece by Nadine Anne Hura - it's been assigned 'misleading' clickbait, maybe because of the title, even though it's a genuine explainer and thoughtful examination of this question. #ToitūTeTiriti
Why is this haka so utterly addictive that even people who don't understand its significance cannot stop watching?
Behaviour in keeping with "good taste and propriety" is not the reason this video has been viewed over 10 million times.
